New York Bear Den will have their monthly gathering on Sunday and it’ll be the annual winter holiday party with a gift exchange. If you are a “bear” or are a man who is attracted to bears, or if you are uncertain but feel you might benefit from an environment in which you can socialize with friendly gay men who are not so hung up on body issues, I encourage visiting us. The details are on the Facebook event page and the Meetup event page. 🐻
